This year's event will take place on August 2nd and 3rd, with Drake headlining the second night. The August 2nd concert will also feature Bas, Cozz and Omen — all of whom are signed to J. Cole's Dreamville Records — while Drake will be joined by unspecified special guests on the 3rd.

While Drake has plenty to look forward to in the coming months, he and his OVO brethren are not anticipating the release of the upcoming concert documentary, Drake's Homecoming: The Lost Footage. The rapper recently took to Twitter to denounce the film, which is centered around a 2009 concert at Toronto's Sound Academy, just before he signed with Lil Wayne's Young Money label. Homecoming is set for a one-night release on March 19th.
